Wind barley matters

[whaler11]

It's a coincidence its 24 points in one direction and none in the other today in the first half.

Hard to tell, do we actually have an opponent today?

 

[Jarhead_1775]

Can you make good beer out of wind barley?

 

[upstater]

That was an excellent movie...

 

[whaler11]

Uconn took wind in 3rd. Yeah hire TJ.

 

[Fishy]

Are you actually griping about TJ today?

If pointing out a lack of strategy is griping than yeah sure.

 

[ZooCougar]

Poor Whalerlawyer. We're blowing a team out and putting it in the air 90% of the time. I guess you can complete passes in December

Oh good now from home in Missouri Zoo is going to get on the Weist train because Memphis stayed in Tennessee for this game.

Or perhaps his strategy is to put a boot on Memphis' throat?

I'm sure that was the strategy against Michigan. It's dumb.

Yeah big leads and offense suck. Are you not getting enough oxygen?

Which has a lot to do with being bright enough to take wind in 4th quarter. How sharp is taking a delay with a FG attempt and punting?

About as bright as having three punts blocked by the same guy in one night.

 

[Fishy]

Hey! Look!

It's working!

 

[ZooCougar]

Another TD. Man Weist is really messing up
here.

 

[ZooCougar]

Hey! Look!

It's working!

It doesn't count unless we run the I formation. Passing the football is for showboats.

 

[Fishy]

I just hope the clock runs out before TJ's egregious strategic error comes back to haunt us.

 

[ZooCougar]

Oh noes! Another touchdown! Back to the drawing board.

You are foocking insufferable. Team had a great day. Offense, defense and specials. I come home to the boneyard and see this. You need to get a grip man

You've now officially joined freescooter on the ignore list.

You guys have to understand, Randy Edsall once said, you have to run the ball at the Rent, therefore that has to be where everything starts and ends as far as the UConn offense.

I'm just busting chops, but the ball can be thrown at the rent even under windy conditions. Casey set a school records for passing yards today. More balance would be better, but we should never digress to the Edsall offensive philosophy of 180 yds rushing and 110 yds passing as the norm. Not if you want to attract kids like Lamelle and Bradley, and even more talented wideouts as you go forward.

I've always subscribed to the philosophy of "Do what the other team doesn't want you to do." Sometimes that means you run the ball on them for 200+ yards. Sometimes that means throw the ball until your arm falls off. Quite frankly, I like an offense that does both relatively well, and that knows when to use it. Memphis wasn't going to give us the ground game, so we chewed them up in the air. Similar to the Rutgers game. The Temple game? We turned that one around on the ground. Too much is made about having to be one style or the other....just do what the other team doesn't want you to do...

I agree. The only thing I'll add, is that next year we will have our most talented compliment of wide receivers in program history. Big, physical, fast, strong, quick, shifty. We have all angles covered. Oline will be obviously be the key.

Whaler needs an enema.

Dan,



You mean we should be flexible? How novel! Lol. It's been so refreshing to watch Day and Weist actually make adjustments and adapt to what the other team was doing.
